Wanted to say that CitriStrip works very well actually! Some people on Reddit said they used it so I gave it a shot and sure enough it worked very well. Along with a little scraping and sanding, I was able to get the frame to bare metal in one day.
Nice! I'll have to check that product out
I'm still on the fence on citri strip, as I already tried WACO stripper, which sucked ass. Didn't do jack
I came to TH-cam because this exact stripper didn’t do anything.. thank you for this video
Hahaha. That stripper is so unbelievably frustrating. Glad I could help! Thanks for watching
10 being highest I'd say 5. The wire wheel drill bit worked wonders. On chrome it made it shine a bit that's all...😊
Thanks for the info. Considering doing my first complete overhaul of one of my rigs.
With the right stuff it's soooo easy. Good luck
Clean strip spray works great
Thanks
Hi about how long do you leave the paint stripper on the bike frame?
The specific paint stripper that I used only needs to be on a few minutes between coats. I left each coat on for about 10-15 minutes
Good Video! Do you think it would work fine on a Titanium fame?
Its a bit late but i dont see why it wouldn’t work on Ti. Ti is extremely unreactive so it wont damage the metal, and the paint will likely be made of similar stuff to what youd find on a steel frame.
Its a bit ridiculous to paint a Ti frame anyway, you need to see raw metal to appreciate it fully
Cool video. How long till you review the Hunt gravel race disc wheelset!?
Hopefully I'll get that out in the next month. I wanna get a few more miles on them.
@@acebikemedia thanks!
Thanks for the link. I’m restoring two 87 GT’s and one had several layers of paint on it. Did you add any rust inhibitor to the frame to keep it from rusting?
All I did was spray it lightly with clear coat. I probably could have went thicker but I wasn't worried about a little patina
@@acebikemedia Awesome, thank you! I ordered several cans of the MSC paint stripper since the Kleen Aircraft Paint stripper has changed. I also bought some LPS-3 rust inhibitor. Glad I came across your vid.
Let me know how it turns out!
@@acebikemedia Will do but my order still hasn't processed. It's still pending. Did you have any issues/restrictions ordering it from them?
The frameset has some rusted areas. I'm wondering which one I should do first; strip all of the paint, then an Oxalic bath. Or Oxalic bath remove the rust, then strip the paint?
Hmm that's interesting. I'm not sure, my work has an account through them so we usually get product very quickly. Not sure why yours would still be pending. Hopefully it goes through asap. And I'm sure it doesn't matter which you do first but I'd probably strip the paint first. I don't have a specific reason why but that's what my gut says.
I have a new dirt bike coming, it has
factory Black rims which I find disgusting.
If I strip the paint off, will the rims look like
the old-school polished alum, or look like
crap because they had to sand them
so they could get the paint to adhere?
They painted aluminum moto rims? Not anodize? I'd say if it was painted and they sanded it you will get it down to the sanded surface. But you could get the factory alum look back with a bit of polishing. I use to use scotch Brite pads on my dirt bikes aluminum and it polishes really well
@@acebikemedia Anodized, I don't
know could be though, I guess I could
scrap off a small area if it scrapes, my
guess is painted. This project
could take a lot of work. I'll remember
the scotch brite pads, if I take on the
project. Thanks for the info.
I want to try this on my next restoration. I scraped the paint off on my last two.
If I would have started with the right products from the beginning, frame and fork would have taken 45 minutes. Definitely worth it. Raw frames are cool.
@@acebikemedia did you only use one can?
One can just barely finished the frame and fork.
I always use citrus strip. Its less nasty and very effective
HA! I got the exact same paint stripper yesterday for my son's old Trek 7600. The shit did essentially nothing, even left on over night.
Yeup. Did the same thing. Left it over night. Nothing. Lightly sanded and then applied. Nothing. Super frustrating
How many cans were used for a frame? Thanks
I'm pretty sure I was able to do the whole frame with one can but it was cutting it close. I'd get two if I did it again
Just me, in my garage, with my bikes....
In the UK at least paint stripper changed a couple of yrs back and the chemicals
In the stripper changed making it pretty much useless
Thats how it seems to be everywhere, but here in the US you can still get the good stuff through industrial supply stores and auto body shops. That might be the case in the UK. That stuff they sell on the shelves at stores is legit worthlessness
If your working on a steel frame the best easiest way is to build a fire and toast cook the paint off then wire brush it
BRAKE FLUID --ULTRA RELIABLE ---
Did you end up polishing it?
Not exactly polished. I did rub the frame down with scotch bright pads to clean it up a bit. It turned out nice. I have the video of the final bike up. It's called state all road 4130 mountain bike, if you wanna see it
@@acebikemedia oh awesome, yeah, just seen that video now, great job.
Would it remove chrome?
No. Unfortunately to remove chrome you get into acid treatments
Nitromors solvent washable "yellow tin" STRONG
Post a video demonstrating please
Thought this dude meant the other types of strippers on thumb nail😂
Ha. Got you 🤣
I had the same experience with that crap. It is absolute garbage. Hope I can find the industrial stuff!
It is absolute trash! So frustrating. But I believe I have a link to the good stuff in the video description. It won't disappoint!
Don’t lie. You’re just trying to save weight and stripped the paint 😂
Saved 393 grams. But who is counting.....
